The Bachelor of Arts (Honours Degree) provides an intensive year of study for outstanding undergraduate students. This program allows you to deepen your expertise in your chosen field. More demanding than a standard bachelor's degree, the BA (Honours) delivers comprehensive Arts education across humanities, social sciences, and languages while strengthening advanced research capabilities and critical thinking. Students cultivate original concepts and learn to implement creative approaches to challenging issues. You can focus on either a single discipline (pure honours) or combine two areas (combined honours).

The BA (Honours) in Media & Communications represents an elite program with stricter academic requirements than the standard degree. It sharpens your analytical abilities, fosters innovative thinking, and teaches you to devise creative solutions to sophisticated challenges. The Honours curriculum requires an extra year of fourth-year level study. You must begin your honours studies within five years of completing your undergraduate degree.
